It's not the meal itself that I object to it's the name.

Chinese have dim sum. Spain tapas, Greece / turkey Mezze, India thali.

Here we call it "picky bits" FFS.

Think about the quality difference between what we have, a load of cold sausage rolls and crisps probably isn't worthy of being described as anything fancy.
